01:49 So, people were getting into the building very quickly, because all those Pravoseky (Right Sector neo-Nazis), those fiends - they were arriving on the black-and-white minibuses.

02:12 And some were getting there on foot, and others by some other means.

02:18 So, we went to the building.

02:28 There were men, both young and older, and women were there too.

02:31 I saw several adolescents.

02:37 Regarding the arms, I personally, did not see anyone with it.

02:40 Anatoly Shary: (…)

02:42 This I can say with certainty. How many - uh -

02:50 As you come in into that building, immediately there was a staircase that went up.

02:55 And you could also turn left there.

02:58 To the right, I don’t remember, I saw some staircase and one could also turn there left.

03:04 The majority of the people immediately ran up the stairs.

03:14 Anatoly Shary: (…)

03:16 Then, a man - I did not go up at all. I don't even know what was there.

03:22 Then I turned to the left. There were several offices there.

03:28 What was there. I entered one office. I don't recall the number.

03:37 Everything was as if in a haze.

03:40 There, the people - there was a large sack with bats.

03:52 And the people went there, the men, naturally, and took them.

03:56 The women went only with, sort of - we were given these little sacks that contained some cotton, the brilliant green, and the gauze. And that was it.

04:07 Anatoly Shary: (…)

04:11 That was the first floor.

04:15 So, near that office, right opposite it, there was a service staircase, and it was blocked, but very badly. It was blocked with just several crates with documents. Other than that, one could go in and out easily.

04:41 Then I went up to the second floor.

04:50 There, basically, everybody was barricading only the intermittent doors.

04:53 Everyone began to barricade them.

04:57 I did not quite understand why barricade the intermittent ones.

05:07 Because if…no one could get any further.

05:14 So I was quite perplexed by that.

05:19 and so - I was already - ah yes - when I was already on the second floor, I saw that many of the pro-Maindan (supporters) were gathering around.

05:33 …they surrounded us all around.

05:36 Anatoly Shary: (…)

05:38 They surrounded us all around. They were all around the building.

05:41 And then literally - well, I don't know, maybe in a couple of minutes.

05:47 Before they started hurling the Molotovs, the water was cut off.

05:50 There was no water in the building whatsoever.

05:53 But the people - I saw some of them had managed to fill up several large bottles with water.

06:00 They were pouring water near the windows.

06:08 I was in shock. I asked the woman, "What are you doing?"

06:10 I said, "You should never pour water, because water with gasoline will ignite even faster."

06:18 I don't know, maybe even in school they tell you about this.

06:25 So I went up to the third floor.

06:32 I looked around and saw who was doing what.06:33 I have a photo where you can see. I personally orientated myself…on the third floor.

06:45 Or intermediate between the second and the thirdon the stair landing.

06:50 When it ignited, in the middle, behind the…and behind it.

06:59 That middle part began to burn.

07:03 So, I don’t know how much time passed. I could not say precisely, but no more than thirty minutes passed since we got there.

07:11 Anatoly Shary: How much...

07:18 No more than 30 minutes. Maybe a bit longer.

07:20 I cannot tell you the exact time just like this, but

07:24 30 minutes definitely passed since we got there.

07:27 Then I went downstairs and heard shooting inside the building.

07:37 They were shooting inside the building.

07:44 A man was standing near me. He had a fire extinguisher.

07:46 He said, "Don’t go down there. The Right Sector is already there."

07:51 I said, "What do you mean? How could they get here so fast?"

07:54 He said, "Don’t go down there."

08:02 I understood then that I should indeed listen to this person.

08:09 And so I went up to the third floor and then,

08:13 Probably in a couple of minutes, a man came up there. He was about 40 and was scrawny, very scrawny.

08:26 He said, "Everybody, come down."

08:29 I said, "Why?”"

08:31 He said, "Everybody, come down. The Right Sector is there.We have to fight them off."

08:35 Well, I don’t know. I personally did not go there.

08:41 I saw a man and a woman go down there, and another two guys.

08:50 How they came up - that I already did not see.

08:55 Anatoly Shary: (…asks if somebody had something…)

09:00 Who? I don’t know. I personally did not see any of our people who were there to have any arms.

09:08 Look, then - on the third floor - where the third floor is -

09:15 as you go up, you can turn to the right and you can turn left there too.

09:21 If you turn right, you can make a quick dash for the staircase that stood...

09:30 There - already! In that flight, a man was lying. He was burned.

09:39 Uh - no - right, a man, and a woman was lying there too. They had been brought down from the fourth floor.

09:47 In other words, already? How come? I don’t know.

09:58 Then - on the stairs - maybe approximately 10 people were there.

10:04 Everything was in smoke. Totally. Even though - I don’t even know.

10:16 It was not quite smoke. I just cannot describe it to you in words.
